Faridabad Industrial Association and others, presenting their side in the High Court, said that in the private sector, people are selected according to their qualification and skills. If the right to choose the employee is taken away from the employers then how will the industries be able to move forward.

Further, the private sector companies, in their argument, termed it as an injustice to the educated and qualified candidates from other areas and termed it as a violation of the constitutional rights. Keeping their side, the private sector companies said that giving priority to the locality by denying the qualification, the state Can create chaos. Keeping all these things in mind during the hearing, the High Court stayed the 75 percent reservation of the Haryana government. Which has now been canceled by the Supreme Court.
